But the two frogs didn’t believe it. 1. . The other frogs kept telling them to stop and wait for their death. Finally, one of the two frogs gave up and fell down. Soon he died.

Planet Earth Welcome to Planet Earth Museum, a museum where you can learn some interesting facts about the world we live in. “1.. Who knows, maybe you’ll see them all one day! Where shall we go first, children? “Forests!”
Forests are home to over half of the world’s animals and plants. Trees clean the air and produce oxygen (O2) for us to breathe. Every day we throw away hundreds of trees in paper and card and we destroy more than 36 football fields of forests.
2.. They transfer (传递) the sun’s heat into the air and move it around the world. A lot of the rubbish we produce on land pollutes the oceans. Turtles mistake plastic bags for jellyfish and die when they eat them.
At opposite ends of the world, the Arctic and Antarctic are freezing cold lands. 3.. The fuel we use for energy makes the earth warmer. As it gets warmer, the ice melts (融化) and the sea rises. The land disappears.
Rivers collect rain water and carry it to the oceans. 4., so it is safe for us to drink. Farms and factories pollute the rivers with pesticides (杀虫剂) and chemicals. Every day we flush (冲掉) 50L of dirty water down the toilet.
This is a green world, where people respect nature and live a long and healthy life. Wouldn’t you like to live here?

Before the invention of the postage stamp, it was difficult to send a letter to another country. The sender paid for the letter to travel in his or her own country. 1. If a letter crossed several countries, the problem was worse.
Rowland Hill, a British teacher, had the idea of postage stamp with glue on the back. The British post office made the first stamps in 1840. There were the Penny Black and the Two Pence Blue. A person bought a stamp and put it on a letter. 2.When people received letters, they didn’t have to pay anything. The postage was prepaid.
Postage stamps became popular in Great Britain immediately. Other countries started making their own postage stamps very quickly. But some countries didn’t want to accept letters with stamps from others. 3. Each country in the UPU agreed to accept letters with prepaid postage from other members. And now almost every country in the world is a member of this organization. 4.

When I was about 13, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings (缺点). Sometimes she said I was lazy. Sometimes she said I wasn’t a good student. 1.. I tried to put up with (忍受) her as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. 2..
My father listened to me quietly, and then he asked, “Are the things she said true or not? Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”
I returned to my room and I did as my father told me. To my surprise, I found that about half the things were true. 3.. He refused to take the list. “That’s just for you,” he said. “When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be helpful to you. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you think is right.”
Many years have passed. 4.. In our life we often meet with some trouble and we often go to someone and ask for advice. For some advice you will treasure (珍惜) all your life!
